I fish a river in michigan, (st.joe), above a dam...after the spawn, where is a good place to pick up the larger bass, i understand they(females) retreat to "deeper" water, now, the river is sloooow moving but obviously has a river channel with trees along the banks, some in the water, patches of lily pads here and there, and some small backwaters, most of the bottom is silty, there r alot of carp in the backwaters now, due to the upcoming spawn, the river has depth to 18 feet in a few places in that stretch.
I am wondering where you guys and gals would look for the bigger fish, deep, shallow, and what baits have you guys had the best luck with in a river system similar to this one?
Thanks in Advance....G
